Anakin Skywalker really is that one character that no one will ever get over

in star wars fandom how is everything about anakin's fall always everyone else's fault except the guy who personally designed it to be a no hit run of Sith Apprentice Generator IV

I love "i would kill for you" ship dynamics but what about "i would stop killing" ship dynamic??

I would lay down my sword for you. I would change my nature and go against everything i've known. I would resist the easy way out of solving my problems. I would give up the adrenaline of battle to stay by your side and make tea instead. I'm not sure I know who I am without a weapon in my hand because I've had to fight for so long but for you I'm willing to try and figure this out.

It must be hard. To put down your weapon that's protected you for so long. It's allowed you to stay alive it's kept you from getting hurt--physically and mentally. Because you've never had to worry about a real relationship if you think you'll be dead at the next battle. And you feel naked without it and it feels like you're ripping off an extension of yourself. Are you even whole without it? Are you worthy of being loved if you can't prove it by risking your life? And yet they've found someone who's asking them for something much harder than dying in battle on their behalf. They've found someone who wants them to live. And that's much more terrifying.

"This is Fine"

Said Piett after everything went very very wrong.

What the fandom did with piett is so fun because yes, this is star wars, every character has a wookieepedia page and a detailed backstory, but the way piett was transformed into a tired middle manager who's loyal to darth vader but just a bit exasperated with him, an imperial who believes in the empire yet still has a heart, is peak fandom. Like he's the perfect spice to a vader and luke story, an outsider who doesn't understand the complicated dance going on between vader and luke, but an insider who knows enough to know that they're being idiots. And he can't help but growing fond of luke, though he needs a hard drink after all his antics.

“do you really want anakin dead?”

[adelcrait]

"I can fix him" good for you. I need to craft a scenario in which he betters himself, to prove to myself that I can meaningfully atone despite how much of myself I see in him.

[adelcrait]

oh boy how do I love the idea that luke skywalker has nuclear power levels of celestial energy burning under his skin all the time and just. a nice guy. a good fella. just your buddy, cheerfully dragging you along for an adventure

[adelcrait]

the fact that “the vibes here are rancid” is a power that the jedi actually have is insane to me

[adelcrait]

And why not? What should he be afraid of? Except— Fear lives inside him anyway, chewing away the firewalls around his heart.
